That's why some TV mfgrs dropped 3D from sets (despite strong sales)..it's ALL about pushing 4K.,,from ads/reviews making 4K seem better than the very marginal difference over good 1080p that it is and minimizing/hiding 3D from consumers. (Not to mention preventing them from getting a 3D-capable set.) The other thing that will probably be lost for some titles are the lenticular slip-covers.

I'm inclined to agree with you, unfortunately Samsung started all this 3D vs. 4K trouble by launching UHD players and immediately removing 3D from their new TVs.
I don't think I'll ever be able to forget that douchebag move by Samsung.
